Solve Your Bad Breath Problem

August 6 is National Fresh Breath Day. Don’t let bad breath spoil it for you! If you’ve got chronic halitosis, now is the time to address it. In addition to causing embarrassment, a foul order can indicate you need dental treatment. At Shook Dental Care, your dentist will identify the cause so we can solve your bad breath problem. 

The solution may be as simple as using a tongue scraper as part of your daily oral hygiene. If gum disease is behind your bad breath, our team can use a deep cleaning treatment to eliminate it. If a cavity is causing the problem, your dentist will treat it with a filling or a dental crown.

You can learn about some common causes of bad breath in this short American Dental Association video. It also offers some suggestions for preventing it. If this advice doesn’t help, call Shook Dental Care at 310-982-6333 to schedule an appointment in San Pedro, CA.
